aproveitamento (de estudos?)
Selected
credit transfer
Como Matheus disse, há varias possibilidades... se for uma referência a "aproveitamento de estudos", através do qual o aluno usa os créditos que obteve em outra instituição ou em outra faculdade da mesma universidade...

success rate; successful completion
It can mean different things... among them:
1) the success rate / achievement rate of the student (expressed as a percentage, for example)
2) whether the student has passed the subject or not
3) whether the subject was completed in another university (o aluno teria aproveitado disciplinas cursadas em outra universidade)
My suggestions are for the first two possibilities, which are more likely, in my opinion. Maybe someone has a better suggestion or a different opinion on that.

Note from asker:
| Thanks Matheus, I think the third suggestion was the closest in this case |
